I like the atmosphere of this - kind of sad and full of longing. It also makes me think of someone sitting inside in the dark looking out of each of these windows. I am not sure about the gradiated separator lines.

This one has a great optical illusion. It looks like a wide angle lens was use to get a nook-like room. This is great.

Thanks Journey and all the other voters!

I had a different crop of this that left out the right side of the picture, thus eliminating the distracting white flower, but it elimineated much of the yellow backgroud on that side of the picture too. Since my main desire was to show the contrast between the flower and the backdrop, I decided not to crop it.

Glad people looked past the flaws and saw what I was aiming at!

Matt, congrats on a very nice picture and score. I had given it an 8, meant to comment on it but ran out of time (my own g3 had arrived, you see :) I too like the delicacy of blue bells and you captured it well with the perfect light falling on it. Love the dof on this shot. I can't believe the colors of the 'greens' coming from my g3 and was happy to see that you have that, too!
